So basically we have a lot of terrible drivers on bridges made of spangles &amp; dreams.</p>KellienteMon, 04 Aug 2008 12:51:59 -0000https://nashvillest.com/2009/04/09/today-free-day-at-travellers-rest-freebies/#comment-1471026<p>@Kelliente - We're basically 13th highest, or 37th lowest. The national average is 1.421 fatalities per 100 million vehicle miles traveled. The individual states report rates from 0.785 (MA - ranked #1) to 2.364 (MT - ranked #50). Tennessee's actual number is 1.829, putting us in 37th place.</p><p>Hope that helps shed a little light on the numbers. I actually originally thought it was ranked highest to lowest, but after a little digging I found the breakdown.</p>morganlevyMon, 04 Aug 2008 12:18:16 -0000https://nashvillest.com/2009/04/09/today-free-day-at-travellers-rest-freebies/#comment-1471029<p>Wait... so that 37th ranking... is that from a positive perspective or a negative perspective? Like, we're ranked low because we have a lot of fatalities and that's bad, so we're 37th? Or we're ranked low because we have a LOW rate of fatalities?</p>KellienteMon, 04 Aug 2008 09:32:28 -0000https://nashvillest.com/2009/04/09/today-free-day-at-travellers-rest-freebies/#comment-1471028<p>I actually thought that lego bridge was a real Nashville bridge for about...5 minutes. Mondays are not fun.</p>JimMon, 04 Aug 2008 08:59:24 -0000
